Him.
School Director ICdwurd .1. Ilealey, oC

lltfht teiulereil Ills resignation as a
member of the board.
Mr. Henley's resignation wus line to
the fact that he Iiiih changed his resi
lience to Cnrhmidulc, being a resident
now of the Second ward of this city.
The resignation was acted upon by
the board, and after Its acceptance the
directors elected Peter Ilealey, his
brother, as his successor.
Mr. Ilealey held the oilier of school
director of IV 1 1 township for several
terms and proved his ellleiciicy In
caring; for the needs of the district.
The confidence of his colleagues on the
board was shown in his election to the
ollloe of treasurer, which he adminis
trated with scrupulous care and hon
es I v.
Mr. Henley's choice of becoming a
citizen of Carbondalo Will be welcomed,
as his career In business, since assum
ing the proprietorship of the Antlun
clle cafe, has most satisfactorily Im
pressed those who huve had relations
with him. J I is ac(UMlntanct's and
,'ricndships here are indeed numerous,
find though his suffrage was held in
Kell township, tlie feeling towards him
has always been the same that is cher
ished for a loyal Carbondallan. A few
weeks ago, Mr. Ilealey and his wife, to
whom be was recently wedded, estab
lished their residence in the filllls block
on Park Place.

Owen niul Charles Tlmmous Become
Owners of the Imperial.
The Iinetuial restaurant on North
.Alain street, which until compelled to
close by. reason of tilt coal strike, was
conducted by .lames Thompson, Jr.,
was yesterday transferred to the Tlm
inons brothers Owen and Charles of
South Main stleet.
The transfer was formally niiide
yesterday by ex-Select Councilman
lames Thompson, who owned the stock,
fixtures, etc. The restaurant will be
opened under Its new management
within ii few days. Charles Tlmnions,
the younger of the new proprietors, has
had ample experience In the restau
rant business to assure the proper
iniinngement of a llrstA'lass dining
place so essential to the town, lie has
been employed for several years among
large lesiatiranls In Philadelphia, and
Atlantic City, and leturned but recent
ly from the latter place. His brother
has also had some experience as a
chef. Martin Connor, who was former
ly employed at the Imperial, and who
has had several years experience In the
restaurants of the town will be back
at tills restaurant when It re.opens.
Since the closing uf the Imperial
weeks ago, Carbondale has been with
out tile only exclusively eating house It
boasted of, and the only, one which
kept open all night.
As a consequence those who reached
the town late at night or on the early
morning trains and who sought a lunch,
besides others whose work kept them
awake until the late hours, were forced
to ge to sleep hungry. Now that this
backward Indication of the town's
progress lias bum removed It will be a
refreshing change.

OBITUARY.
MISS .THAN IIONTMll, a graduate
nurse of the class of '01 .of Kinergcnoy
hospital, this elly, succumbed yester
day morning ut 7 o'clock at- the home
of her sister, Mrs. George Dhnuck, on
Cemetery sticot, to pulmonary disease,
from which she had suffered for many
mouths.
Miss Hunter was a native of Hones
dale, where she was born forty-one
years ago. Most of her life was spent
between this city and Archbald. After
her graduation from Emergency hos
pital she followed her profession here
for a while, going subsequently to the
hospital at Saratoga, N. Y. Her fall
ing strength forced her to return to
Carbondale In January last. She, re
sided here since, disease gradually
weakening her until the summons came.
There will be a wide circle of friends
affected by the news of Miss Hunter's
death, for she was held In affectionate
regard by those with whoin she associ
ated. Tier tender nature was shown In
her administration to the needs or the
sick who came under her care and In
the respect she showed towards the
reelings or others. She was deeply In
terested in religious work and was a
helpful influence In the First Presby
terian church, or which she was a mem
ber. She Is survived by one sister, Mrs.
(ieorge Dlmock, and one brother, Mine
Foreman Thomas Hunter.

FILLS FOR PALE PEOPLE,
TO LIVE IN MONTANA.
Drummers Who Didn't Visit Here
During Strike Suffer Now.
More than a few drummers who
crossed Carbondale off their traveling
list during the coal strike are regretting
now that they were not at least a bit
more sociable and called here, if only
to say "howdy" to their customers In
this city. On the other hand, the sales
men who were faithful in their visits
and came, Irrespective of whether they
got an order or weie turned away, are
reaping a harvest through the error of
business judgment of the other lads.
When the inllux of drummers com
menced this week and the traveling
men got among their customers, those
of them who kept away during the
strike were given a look by merchants
which was more effective than if they
were told, through a Press club mega
phone, to go away back and sit down.
They weren't taken to the arms of the
mrechants and given a bear-like, hug
of joy, but were Informed, in numer
ous instances, that there was nothing
doing n their line. These customers
took umbrage at the lack of interest
these salesmen displayed and some
looked upon it as a lack of courtesy,
thus shunning them while there was a
depression and rushing back on almost-
the first train when prosperity seemed
at hand. The drummers who hi me,
whether or not there was anything
doing, were remembered and leeched,
beside their own order, the one that
ordinarily would go to the other. It
was an application of "it's an III wind,"
etc.
Drummers continue to come to town
Mrs. Walter Nye Joins Her Husband
Who Is Located in the West.
Mis. Walter Nye, of Darte avenue,
left yesteiday afternoon for Gleudive,
Montana, where she will rejoin her
husband who left here several months
ago to accept a position as train des
patcher on the Northern Pacific rail
road. Mi', and Mrs. Nye will make
their home In Montana.
Mr. Nye was train despatcber under
the Delaware and Hudson company lu
tills city until several months ago,
when he went West. His present posi
tion as despatcber Is somewhat ad
vanced over the one he held here, and
there are exceptional opportunities for
continued advancement. These facts
and the fact that the climate seems
more adapted to his physical comfort
induced him to remain in Montana.
Mr. and Mrs. Nye were In the midst
of a wide elide of friends In Carbon
dale who valued their companionship.
Though there are keen regrets over
their withdrawal, the best wishes ac
company them across the continent to
their new home.
Taken Dangerously 111 Here.
Michael Vincent, of Patterson, N. J.
who came here about two months ago
to visit his sister, Mrs. Patrick Shanon,
on Canaan street, and to seek an Im
provement In his physical condition,
has suffered a bad change and is
dangerously III. Two of Mr. Vincent's
sons were summoned to Carbondale
this week and are now at his bedside.
They are Prof. A. G. Vincent, a
musician of New York city, and Thomas
C. Vincent, of St. Louis, Mo.
If the patient's condition permits, he
will be taken to his home in Paterson,
next week. There is little prospect of
bis ultimate recovery owing to ad
vanced age, being over 70 years.

Bedridden, with Chronic Inflamma
tory Rheumatism, Miss Walton's
Life Had Been Despaired of
by Her Doctor.
The doctor hud made his last call at
the house uf Miss Maggie Walton, No.
1320 Main street, Peoria, ill., and had
told her sorrowing mother that nothing
more could be done. Maggie might dlo
at any time. The situation was criti
cal enough lo warrant the doctor's
conclusion, for the trouble wus Inllnm
matory rheumatism and It had attack
ed the heart. But Miss Walton Is a
healthy, happy young lady today. Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People
cured her and she Is enthusiastic In
telling the story. She says:
"I was aflllcted with chronic lullam
matbry rheumatism and had sufrered
with It from my childhood. When I
was fourteen I was a helpless cripple,
unable to leave my bed nnd with my
arms and legs swollen to twice their
natural size. I often fainted nway
with the pain, frequently several times
during the day. Sometimes they thought
I was dead. The rheumatism had af
fected my heart and that was the
cause of the tainting spells. It was Im
possible for me to take any solid food
and there were days and days when
not even a spoonful of liquid would
stay on my stomach.
"When the doctor had given me up
my father determined to huve me try
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Palo Peo
ple. So ho got some and I could feel
an Improvement after the first few
doses. Little by little I began to get
better and a faithful course with these
pills restored me to health. That was
nearly live years ago. Now I am twen
ty and In the best of health. I am sure
that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills saved my
life.

Women's Gloves
It was a long time before we could get Gloves
properly made for us.
Though wo might choose the skins ourselves'
and be sure they were the best, they were often
spoiled In the cutting. It has taken moro work
thnn most people caro to give to get the measure
ments correct, and the workmanship the best. Our

Tho Jouvin, we know by comparison to be the
best $1.50 Glove made In France.
The Superb Washable Glove Is tho finest Glove
of the kind ever made.

Nothing a woman wears Is moro difficult to
buy. Furs admit of as much doctoring as the
horse that David Harura bought.
In order that you may choose safely, we have
our Furs chosen by an expert who gets the pick
of the world's best skins.
The new fashions and the newest Furs are
ready now. As Furs arc seldom twice alike, and
we never know what wo are going to get after tho
first lot is gone, the earlier purchases can be made,
the better.

Union Suits for Women
Those who have worn Union Suits show their
opinion of them by buying more.
They are the best fitting garment beneath
other clothing specially adapted for wear under
this season's close-fitting skirts. They carry the
weight from tho shoulders instead of the waist
nnd are most comfortable. A Union Suit must, of
course, fit well, and accurate garments are scarce.
These are correctly shaped and true to size.

Wool $1.50 to $3.50
Silk, up to. $6.50
